Global Towers: Starting With The SSS-Rank Talent, God-Tier Extraction

Chapter 1004 Liu Yan's Intentions





Liu Yan and his group successfully disbanded the Lighthouse Territory.

The massive city of Lighthouse Territory collapsed instantly, and the towering city of over 200 meters vanished, leaving behind a field of ruins.

When the people from Lakon arrived, all they could see were these ruins. Even though they could deduce from the traces that the Lighthouse Territory had dissolved on its own, they might have speculated about some reasons. They might have guessed that their plan had been uncovered by the people of Blue Planet, prompting them to intentionally dissolve the Lighthouse Territory for self-preservation.

However, even if the people of Lakon Territory had these suspicions, what could they do?

As long as they couldn't locate Liu Yan and his companions, Liu Yan's group would remain safe.

The Wind Barrier on the sixth level of the tower was enormous, making it extremely challenging for Lakon to track down Liu Yan and his team.

After leaving the former site of Lighthouse Territory, Liu Yan and his team didn't immediately return to the Hallucinatory Forest. Instead, they took a wide detour outside.

After all, they had some special skill that could track him down. They might be able to find Liu Yan and the others.

Fortunately, the Wind Barrier was filled with chaotic wind elemental power, providing some obstruction.

Liu Yan led a squad of elite experts, each with a minimum combat strength of 13 stars. Their considerable strength translated to impressive speed.

However, this wide detour caused them to spend half a day on the road.

It wasn't until dusk that Liu Yan led the squad back to Team Origin's temporary camp deep within the Hallucinatory Forest.

At this moment, all the members of the Origin Team, as well as Lu Dajiang and Huang Yuan's subordinates, were cultivating.

Although the war had ended, there was a short period of peace.

However, it was precisely after experiencing such a dangerous battle that all the team members understood the importance of increasing their strength.

At this moment, these team members were busy cultivating and increasing their strength.

After the end of the battle, there were many insights. In addition, there were many cultivation resources, so the team members could quickly increase their strength through cultivation.

Upon witnessing Liu Yan's return, Derek Dole and a few others approached with somewhat grave expressions.

"Captain, you've finally returned. Something serious has occurred," Derek Dole conveyed with a serious demeanor.

Liu Yan discerned the situation but maintained a composed front. "What's happened? Take your time and explain. There's no need to rush."

Sun Wen cast a peculiar look towards Lu Dajiang before elucidating, "This is what happened. When we checked the number of people just now, we found that there were a few people missing. After checking, we found that the eight people led by Wang Long suddenly disappeared."

Derek Dole also chimed in, "We've already dispatched multiple squads to search in different directions, but we haven't found anything yet."

Luo Qingcheng remained silent but observed Liu Yan with curiosity.

Luo Qingcheng had previously expressed concerns about this. She had suggested to Liu Yan whether they should enhance security personnel to prevent any team members from escaping.

After all, if any team member managed to escape and was discovered by Lakon Territory's people, it was highly likely that the coordinates of the Origin Territory would be exposed.

In such a scenario, the Origin Territory wouldn't be able to stay concealed and would unavoidably be within the sights of the formidable Lakon Territory.

Given the significant power disparity, the outcome for the Origin Territory was apparent. It would inevitably be overrun by the forces of Lakon Territory.

Hence, the current imperative was to restrict all individuals from leaving, as this was of utmost importance.

However, when Luo Qingcheng inquired with Liu Yan, he declined.

Liu Yan not only resisted reinforcing security but even intentionally reduced the guard personnel under Luo Qingcheng's command.

By doing so, they not only failed to prevent people from departing but inadvertently presented them with an opportunity to leave.

Luo Qingcheng naturally didn't consider this to be Liu Yan's oversight. Having spent considerable time with him, she understood Liu Yan's disposition very well.

Luo Qingcheng was aware that Liu Yan possessed not only formidable strength but also an exceptionally meticulous mindset.

Therefore, Liu Yan would never make such a low-level mistake when he was reminded.

Hence, it was evident that Liu Yan had undertaken these actions deliberately.

Consequently, upon learning of Wang Long and the others escape, Luo Qingcheng remained composed and did not succumb to panic.

Now that Liu Yan had returned, Luo Qingcheng found herself somewhat curious about how Liu Yan would handle this situation.

Although Luo Qingcheng wasn't clear about Liu Yan's specific plan, no matter how she looked at it, this matter seemed to have been deliberately done by Liu Yan. Even the current situation was what Liu Yan wanted to see.

After Liu Yan understood the situation, he remained remarkably composed. After all, Liu Yan had entered into a Soul Contact with the Withered Tree Spirit King. With their minds connected, Lin Feng had long since become aware of Wang Long and the others escape, and at this very moment, Wang Long and his companions were being restrained by the Withered Tree Spirit King.

Upon learning of the situation, Lu Dajiang's expression turned awkward. "This is all my fault. Let's swiftly retrieve Wang Long and the others. We'll split up and take action!"

Lu Dajiang was undoubtedly feeling a deep sense of guilt. After all, he was acutely aware of the significance of Wang Long and the others escape.

It was no exaggeration to say that Wang Long and the others' escape might spell the downfall of the entire Team Origin, including numerous members within their ranks.

Huang Yuan looked somewhat displeased as he cast a glance at Lu Dajiang. "Lu Dajiang, it's not that I'm lecturing you, but you need to exercise stricter control over your subordinates. Your kindness is what led to this situation. In my command, anyone who dares to disobey orders is never let off lightly. Just look at my team members under me. None of them would dare to defy orders."

Lu Dajiang nodded with a hint of embarrassment. "You're right. I should indeed pay more attention to this aspect in the future."

However, at this moment, Liu Yan gestured with his hand and stated, "There's no need to find Wang Long and the rest. I know where they are."

"Ah?"

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Liu Yan in puzzlement.

Liu Yan did not explain further. He only brought everyone to the bottom of the Withered Tree Spirit King.

"Release those who escaped," Liu Yan instructed the massive Withered Tree Spirit King.

In an instant, the immense vines swiftly shifted, and before long, Wang Long and his group were placed before Liu Yan and the others.

Suddenly, the huge vine moved quickly and soon, Wang Long and the others were placed in front of Liu Yan and the others.

These vines were the very vines of the Withered Tree Spirit King. Not only were they extremely tough and difficult to damage, but ordinary elemental power was also unable to damage them.

It was impossible to damage it with flames unless one was powerful enough.

As for Wang Long and his group, even the strongest among them had only a 12-star combat strength. Faced with the Withered Tree Spirit King's formidable 17-star combat strength, they were outmatched and couldn't break free from its restraints.

Upon seeing Wang Long and the others securely bound, the people present collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's fortunate we have the Withered Tree Spirit King. If these eight had truly escaped, I shudder to think of the consequences."

"Yes, it's our negligence. Thankfully, the Withered Tree Spirit King is here."

"The Withered Tree Spirit King is truly a key factor in this situation."

"What's wrong with Wang Long and the others? How could they leave without permission?"

"This time, with the Withered Tree Spirit King, we managed to avoid danger."

Everyone was discussing animatedly.

Luo Qingcheng cast a discerning glance at Liu Yan and immediately grasped his intention.

Liu Yan had purposely allowed them to lower their guard, providing Wang Long and the others an opportunity to escape.

And the purpose of this was to facilitate Wang Long and the others escape.

Since the Withered Tree Spirit King was guarding outside, the truth was that they couldn't leave at all. The Withered Tree Spirit King could easily apprehend Wang Long and the escaping individuals.

Through this incident, not only did Liu Yan have a legitimate excuse to deal with Wang Long and the others, but he could also use this incident to let Lu Dajiang and the others understand the importance of this matter. Naturally, it would be convenient for Liu Yan to restrict the movements of all the members of Lu Dajiang's and Huang Yuan's teams. They wouldn't let them leave to ensure the safety of the Origin Territory!

Once the perceptive Luo Qingcheng comprehended Liu Yan's intention, she immediately cooperated, saying, "This time, we have the Withered Tree Spirit King on our side. But we can't count on having such assistance next time. It's best to address the issue at its source. We must prevent any team member from leaving without authorization. Otherwise, we're facing a ticking time bomb that could potentially deliver a devastating blow to all our team members at any moment."

Luo Qingcheng's message was clear. She was urging Lu Dajiang and Huang Yuan to maintain strict control over their team members, preventing any unauthorized departures.

Otherwise, their two squads and Team Origin would face the danger of being destroyed. They might not even have the ability to resist at all.
